Why doesn't the regex: \<<\+\[A-Z]>\> work? I'm trying to find all HTML tags in uppercase. -- Duke |

I cannot believe that there is actually somebody reading this list! Alleluia! :) Well that's not good news that you send me. That means that it is impossible to search and replace HTML tags with JOE regex? How would I go about writing "<" and ">" in hex notation in JOE regex syntax? I'll try _that_ if possible. Thanks.

Thanks. Try this regex to match HTML tags: <\+/\+\[A-Z]> The only problem is that it will also match <> so watch out if you've got that sequence. Thanks, Tom |

We should start a website - JOE's Bar & Grill, or something - a forum to discuss JOE and other issues of interest. :) > > Well that's not good news that you send me.

Is there a way to "replace" the found HTML uppercase tags with lowercase? Maybe \0\1\[a-z]\3 ? Thanks! and Merry Christmas ... -- Duke |

I'm using jmacs - could _that_ be the problem? or one of my settings in ~/.jmacsrc? -- Duke |
